And, speaking ahead of Saturday’s trip to Bristol City, Wilder confirmed: “All the senior boys came back fit and healthy, and all will be involved at the weekend.

“Going away with their countries is a great experience for them, playing against different styles and types of players. It’s great for their education. They’re all young players and it’s valuable experience for them.

“I’m delighted and proud that they are involved at international level.”

Another boost for United ahead of the trip to Ashton Gate came when striker Leon Clarke declared himself available, after missing the Aston Villa game before the break with a tight hamstring.
